The Way, The Truth and The Life


 Before I went to bed at night I made up my mind wake up and have quiet time. I made sure it was the last thing I thought about before I slept so that it would be the first thing on my mind when I woke up.

Thank God, it was. I noticed as I read the word ready to receive everything He had to offer me this morning/day, I had this awareness, like an overwhelming assurance that; as I have looked and continue to look into the Book of Life, I am guaranteed Life and not just life but an Abundance of Life. What an awareness! What an assurance!! What a blessing!!!

 It was in this consciousness that I got up to actually write about this experience; perhaps so as to grave it upon my memory, to encourage myself to always fix my eyes on Him knowing that it's possible to have an abundance of life as long as I live in Him.

You see the truth is I get distracted by the excitement and sensation of my environment because of this, I take my eyes off "The Life" and as a result, it's only a matter of time before I find myself lost, empty, vulnerable and spent. I want an exceptional life. A life lived to it's full potential, a life lived on purpose to fulfill what God created me to be. It occurred to me that I not only have to be mindful where I look for inspiration and excitement consciously or otherwise but I cannot make it without God. Yes, this has been proven time and time and again in my life. 


I decided this year was going to be my best year ever, a year that would mark the beginning of me living to my maximum potential, a year where God is not just part of the plan but is the primary focus. A year of focus and excellence the year I venture out of mediocrity. A year where I obtain ALL the blessings God has laid for me knowing that I can loose this blessings by not being in His presence to actually know what the blessings are to actually receive them. This is the year of great achievements and giant strides a year I shed my old habits for new ones a year of great potential and I am certain I can't do it without Him.

I would not let tardiness get in my way. I have to be strong and focused. Focused on The Life.

PRAYER
Dear Father please keep me rooted in you for I cannot do without you. Strengthen me through your Spirit so that I become who I need to become to achieve all that you have placed in my heart to accomplish this year. Thank you father for the assurance of your guidance and presence for you promised "you will never leave me of forsake me" it is with this understanding I thank you with all my heart. In Jesus name I pray.
